WNR REPRESENTED AT CAMP COURAGEOUS

Because of the horse_ _ _ _ weather we have been having and again on Sunday, our ride to Camp Courageous obviously didn't materialize.  However, Bob & Julie drove down in the Dakota, and there at Camp Courageous were Gary and his grandson and family.  So WNR was represented again at this worthwhile charitable event.  Actually there was snow still on the ground stretching all the way down to Monticello, but the heaviest seemed to be around here and near Guttenberg.  By the way, there were no motorcycles in the parking lot at CC.  The omelets, sausage, toast, juice, and coffee were delicious as usual.  

On the way back we noticed that most of the snow had melted up here and we passed Carl's Used Car lot on the Volney Road.  Maybe we will have better weather for the fall ride to Camp Courageous.

RIDE TO HELL

As you may know by now the guy's trip this summer (Chuckles' pick) is to Hell and (maybe) back by going around the north shore of  Lake Superior via Canada.  Because of limited motel accommodations in some of the areas we plan to travel through, it would be important to know how many guys plan on making this trip.  I realize it's not until late July (July 29-Aug.3) when we will be going, but if you are considering going along, you should let Bob R know as soon as you can, so he can plan the motel stops.  Right now we have Bob R, Chuckles, Clair, Jim, and Darron on the list.  You will need some sort of passport to get back into the US, unless you plan on staying in Hell!

FINALLY!!

Three red bikes departed Casey's Wednesday night at 5:30 for the official kick-off of the Wednesday Night Riders season. 

JIM & CATHY, BUT NO HOWARD!

THERE HE IS.  HIGH STEPPING IT ACROSS THE STREET

  Aboard  with partly sunny skies and a temp of 64 were Jim & Cathy, Howard, and Bob R.  We traveled up HWY 76 to Bear Creek Drive and headed west to Locust Road and turned north.  Highway 44 was our next stop and turning back east we passed through Spring Grove and then onto CR 17 following it back to 76 just north of Eitzen.  76 took us back to Iowa River Drive east and then onto Lycurgus Road.  We followed Lycurgus to HWY 9 and back into Waukon and Gus & Tony's.  Because of construction, we had to park on the side street.  The conversation at supper was based around fat Mexican chickens!  I had 85 miles on the Wing when I pulled into the shed at home.  Nice first 2019 ride, and hopefully many more.

CAMP COURAGEOUS

We have a ride scheduled on Sunday to go down to Monticello for the Camp Courageous omelet breakfast fund raiser.  Right now the weather doesn't look too good.  The Wicked Weather Witch even craps on charitable events!  If it's above 50 and sunny, I will probably take the bike, but there's a good chance that Julie and I will be driving down in the Dakota.  If you want to ride along with us, meet at 9:15 AM at Casey's on Sunday morning.
